Are the Republicans Prepared ?

The proofs are accumulating that a
division in the solid Democratic South
is impending and that in the presiden-
tial election of next year the Demo.
Gratis will not be able to mark off 153
electoral votes as their own without
any contest. Evidences of this fact
come from leading Democratic papers
in the Southern states and also from
prominent Democrats in the same
neighborhood. The indications which
the elections of last November gave
in the same direction are likewise sig.
niicant. 1t is impossible to explain a
Republican majority of 20,759 in Vir.
ginia, the reduction of the Democratic
plurality in West Virginia to 800 and
the increased Republican representa-
tion from North Carolina on the
ground of Democratic apathy alone.
These results were due in the main to
profound dissatisfaction with the Dem.
ocratic policy and to a growing senti.
ment in favor of Republican prinei
plies.
This discomfort has manifestly in
creased since the adjournment of th,
Forty ninth Congress and the genera
ineficieneY of that body has beer
made apparent. The important meas
ures in which the Southern people wer
most earnestly interested were defeat
ed in the Democratic House or faile,
to receive the assent Of Democrati
President. Southern sentiment

or a material reduction in. the interna

FROM THE STATE CAPITOL.

As ethereal spring" creeps on and
Old Sol. beams warmly on mother
earth the solons at the State Capitol
are reminded that time is heeting and
in order to reach home in time to at.
tend to their spring gardening it will
be necessary to get up and dust, and
the consequences are that disposition
IN hurry on the work seems to have
taken pretty good hold of them, re-
suIting in the passage finally of a
goodiy number of the most cunber
some bills within the past week. These
once out of the way the balance will
not be so hard to pass and then there
are always a few aspiring and ambi-
tious statesmen who must make a
mark" large enough to be visible to
their ever expectant constituency with
out the use of microscope, before
business can proceed with any degree
of alacrity. This kind of work is
pretty we'll up now, too, and so it is
thought there will be little to interfere
with the dispatch of legislative work.
Much valuable time has been spent
in the past two weeks over the high
license bill on second reading. 1t is a
bill that virtually means about the
same as the present license law except
that it makes the fees somewhat higher
and provides that certain per centage
thereof shall 60 TO the county. The
amounts to be paid range in cities
from $500 to $500, in boroughs $3.50
and in townships s75. Three.ffths Of
the amount goes to the boroughs and
townships, one.fifth to the county and
one.6fth to the State. On second read
ing the bill had 112 yeas, but wheth
er it will get the necessary 101 to pas
it finally is matter of some doubt.
The BillingsleY bill, which passed
second reading without a struggle, anC
is liable 10 be reached on third read
ing within the next ten days, is begin
ming 10 be somewhat of puzzlsr L
the boys. Many members who wer
at first urged by their constituents
support aud do ali they could for tn
bill, and who have been industriousl
at work to that end, are now being in
portuned by many of those same COZ
stituents to "turn about face and kic
just as hard the other way. Hent
the puzzler. It places them in som
thing like the same dilemma of Il
fellow who attempted to jump fro
the top of one building to anothe
and when half way over found
wasn't going to make it, and had
Jump back. 1t is hard trick to pc
form, but some may have to do it.
The pharmacy bill, regulating 4
sale of drugs, poisons, and the col
pounding of prescriptions, passed t
House finally and will go to the Sc
ate for concurrence this week In
present form it is very decent bi
and will go far toward correcti

registration. All new druggists, or
those who want to 60 into the bus
mess, must pass an examination be-
fore a State Pharmaceutical board,
and get there from a certificate of
competency. Heavy fines are i'm
posed for adulterating or weakening
drugs.
The act allowing teachers pay for
attendance at Institute, has passed
both houses and will go to The Cover
nor this week. This will doubtless cheer
the pedagogic heart in Forest county,
and cause the teachers to look for.
ward to the approaching institute
with greater pleasure than in former
years.
The bill for the reorganization of
the National Guard has also passed
both branches of the legislature, and
will be in the hands of the Governor
this week.
Charges having been made by the
Philadelphia Press that a corruption
fund was used to defeat the bank ex-
aminer bill, a committee of investiga-
ton has been appointed, which will
proceed at once to learn what there
is in the rumor. The bill was not a
very meritorious measure at best. aud
it would not seem that much effort
should be necessary to knock it out.
1t is not likely that any "mare's nest
will be discovered; at least none of
very great proportions.
About 1S bills have passed both
branches, out of passible 9SS intro.
duced in both houses. The Senate
has passed about 130, and the House
so. The Governor has attached his
signature to eight bills, and has at
present about the same number under
consideration. There have been about
800 more bills introduced, all told,
than at last session.
The Senate is considerably ahead
iu its work, and is taking things sort
of easy like these days.
Politics are very quiet about the
capital these days, owing doubtless
to the fact that the State has only a
Treasurer and Supreme Judge to elect
this fall. For the latter place Judge
Simonton, of Harrisburg, is quite
favorably mentioned. Col. Quay i:

is given out that he will resign as

South, is another and potent cause for
dissatisfaction.
This is the situation in the South
to day and the question arises whether
the Republican leaders are prepared
to take advantage of the change i'm
pending in that neighborhood. The
progress thus far made in rehabilitat.
ing the Republican party in the South
ern states has received little encour.
agement from the North. The time
seems to have arrived, however, when
another policy should be adopted and
a new effort made to place the Repub.
lican party upon a solid and enduring
basis iu that section. Democratic pa
pers have expressed an intention of
abandoning the color line and of ap-
pealiDg to the negro voters for support.
This will clear the way FOR a Republi-
can appeal to the intelligent white
voters, and the indications are ample
that if made 10 the right spirit it will
meet with hearty and generous re.
sponse. A large majority of the white
and colored voters of the South are
undoubtedly to-day in accord with the
policy of the Republican party. But
they will never be brought to act upon
their convictions by harping upon old
sores and by keeping alive old estrange.
ments. The duty of the Republican
leaders, then, seems to be to accept
frankly the situation aud prepare for
the reorganization Of the party in the
Southern states. .-Phila Press.
